"So are you ready?" Kim Ann helped her friend fix her veil and smiled.
"I think so, why am I so nervous, I mean Kevin and I have been through a lot and we have managed to get by" Skylar started to cry.
"It's jitters, don;t worry about them, the minute you see that beautiful man at the end of the aisle you will forget about everything. That reminds me, did you see how hot Howie looked in that tux?" Kim Ann grinned as she wiped the tears from her best friend's cheeks.
"I have heard nothing but that since the hootchies saw him walk in. My lord Sarah, Crissy, Jessi, Lisa, Jenn and Kel are all freaking out. I still cannot believe that they flew in for this."
"They love you, they love Kev but most of all they love Howie and they would not let an opportunity to get loaded with Howie and the boys go by. Now let's get you married." the two girls hugged.

"Bri I need you to give this to Skylar, don;t let her walk down this aisle without reading it" Kevin handed Brian a letter.
"Ok Cuz I will go give it to her" Brian hugged his cousin and walked to the back of the tiny church and knocked on the door. He started to cry when he saw how beautiful Skylar looked. Her face was aglow with anticipation and the pregnancy. Her hair was loosely piled on her head in curls with tiny blue forget me nots holding them up. She was wearing a flowing white dress that showed off her swollen belly. She had wanted to get a dress that made her look somewhat slim but Kevin had begged her to wear a dress that would show off Peanut "baby I am so proud of what we accomplished, Peanut should be the star of this show, please don't hide that big beautiful tummy" Kevin had said as the two had laid in bed discussing the wedding.
"Skylar you are stunning" Brian hugged her tight and kissed her cheek "Kevin wanted me to give you this before you walked down the aisle" Brian hugged her again and motioned for Kim Ann to leave the room so she could read the letter in peace.
Skylar sat down in the chair and with her hands shaking, opened the envelope. She smiled when she saw the beautiful handwriting that she loved.
"Well if you are reading this then you are minutes away from becoming my wife. I am writing this as I sit in my magical and secret spot, my feet are dangling in the cold water and the stars are forming a magnificent map in the sky. I have been dreaming about marrying the woman of my dreams since I was a child. I have written letters to you all my life and this will be the final one. I had always dreamed of finding someone who would hug me just to feel the warmth of my body against hers, someone whose eyes would twinkle when I walked into the room and someone who would stand on her tiptoes and kiss me. Before I found you I had almost given up on finding this woman. Baby you entered my life and changed it. You made me confront my feelings, you reminded me how good it felt to be loved and how right it felt to have the woman you loved safe and secure in your arms. I cannot stand being away from you for 2 minutes, if I am not hugging you then I am counting down the seconds until you will be in my arms, if I am not seeing your beautiful smile then I am closing my eyes and picturing you in my mind. Most of all if you are not lying in bed, with your body pressed against mine and my hands touching the miracle of our love that is growing inside you then I am trying to find every way to make that a reality. I wished for you every day, on every star, on every penny thrown into a wishing well and with every prayer I offered up to the heavens. They brought you to me and in mere moments we will be together forever. Baby I stayed up all night last night thinking how amazing it was going to be to slip the band on your finger, how incredible it would be to pledge my love to you forever but most of all how I will never forget the moment that I look into your eyes, cup your face in my hands and kiss you for the first time as my wife and life partner. I will love you forever. Thank you for making my dreams come true.
Yours forever
Kevin.
Skylar's face was wet with tears as she folded the letter and held it to her chest. "Baby I cannot wait till you are my husband." She offered a prayer of thanks to god and then walked over and opened the door "Okay it is safe to come back into the room. Brian please tell Kevin that I cannot wait to make his dream a reality. Kymmi get your ass in here and help me fix my makeup" Brian smiled and wiped the tears from his eyes as he walked to the front of the church.
"Did she say anything Bri?" Kevin asked nervously.
"She says she cannot wait to make your dream a reality and that she loves
you" Brian hugged his cousin and winked at the rest of the guys who walked
over and all gathered into a group hug and said a prayer asking god to watch
over Kevin and Skylar on this special day.
